Über diesen Film

A sprawling epic of family, faith, power and oil, THERE WILL BE BLOOD is set on the incendiary frontier of California's turn-of-the-century petroleum boom. The story chronicles the life and times of one Daniel Plainview (Daniel Day-Lewis), who transforms himself from a down-and-out silver miner raising a son on his own into a self-made oil tycoon. When Plainview gets a mysterious tip-off that there's a little town out West where an ocean of oil is oozing out of the ground, he heads with his son, H.W. (Dillon Freasier), to take their chances in dust-worn Little Boston. In this hardscrabble town, where the main excitement centers around the holy roller church of charismatic preacher Eli Sunday (Paul Dano), Plainview and H.W. make their lucky strike. But even as the well raises all of their fortunes, nothing will remain the same as conflicts escalate and every human value -- love, hope, community, belief, ambition and even the bond between father and son -- is imperiled by corruption, deception and the flow of oil.

I didn't like it that want to be precher was all about money it didn't have much action it was slow pace movie but Daniel Day Lewis is a good actor I love his Last of the mohicans, Gangs of New York , Lincoln. Didn't like this movie for some reason .

A movie worth watching. The acting gets very good and dramatic in some scenes. However, I give it a 4 star rating because i wouldnt watch it multiple times.

"There Will be Blood", is a magnificent Paul Thomas Anderson movie that absolutely moves me. I find myself in love with each aspect of this movie and it stays nestled and warm as one of my top ten favorite films. Whether or not this movie connects to you as heavily as it did to me is not important. The fact of the matter is that this is a fantastic film that all should give a shot!
